A nice place to take a break, at the ferrymen there are also cold drinks and ice cream.

A bridge that was built so that trains can cross the canal. Or ships the railway line. Or cyclists, hikers and female cyclists. Wait... whatever. The riveted historical bridges were renewed, approximately at the beginning of the millennium. A pity, a pity. But hey, they are blue (all)(the bridges) and the Bimmelbahn can zoom over them at full speed.

A pretty wooden bridge over the small stream... the imposing tree right next to the bridge is impressive.

I think the tour will be very nice from Mölln towards Lübeck.

The Elbe-Lübeck Canal is worth a trip in itself. I recommend taking a trip from Neu Lankau or Berkenthin to Lübeck.
